Research direction
Start by reproducing `./luarocks build` with the Lua 5.1 executable shown in the report. Inspect the reported `luarocks/loader.lua` failure and the Lua module search paths, especially the mismatch with the Lua 5.3 installation path. Done means the command no longer reports that `luarocks.core.path` cannot be found.
